flatMap is supposed to return Seq, not Iterator. You are returning a class that implements Iterator. I have a hunch that's what's causing the confusion. flatMap is returning a RDD[FairFetcher] not RDD[CrawlData]. Do you intend it to be RDD[CrawlData]? You might want to call toSeq on FairFetcher.

But still the tasks are pinned to the driver executor and none of the workers, so I no longer saturate the master node, but I also have 3 workers just sat there doing nothing. > > On 2021/06/09 01:26:50, Sean Owen <sro...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Are you sure it's on the driver? or just 1 executor? > > how many partitions does the groupByKey produce? that would limit your > > parallelism no matter what if it's a small number. > > > > On Tue, Jun 8, 2021 at 8:07 PM Tom Barber <magicaltr...@apache.org> wrote: > > > > > Hi folks, > > > > > > Hopefully someone with more Spark experience than me can explain this a > > > bit. > > > > > > I dont' know if this is possible, impossible or just an old design that > > > could be better. > > > > > > I'm running Sparkler as a spark-submit job on a databricks spark cluster > > > and its getting to this point in the code( > > > https://github.com/USCDataScience/sparkler/blob/master/sparkler-core/sparkler-app/src/main/scala/edu/usc/irds/sparkler/pipeline/Crawler.scala#L222-L226 > > > ) > > > > > > val fetchedRdd = rdd.map(r => (r.getGroup, r)) > > > .groupByKey() > > > .flatMap({ case (grp, rs) => new FairFetcher(job, rs.iterator, > > > localFetchDelay, > > > FetchFunction, ParseFunction, OutLinkFilterFunction, > > > StatusUpdateSolrTransformer) }) > > > .persist() > > > > > > This basically takes the RDD and then runs a web based crawl over each RDD > > > and returns the results.
